Hello recently bought a punto and the stereo which it came with doesnt actually have the correct connections. So Im wondering if its possible to fit an Aux cable to the standard connection in the car and then just add a faceplate to where the stereo should go?

Do you mean the stereo doesn't have a AUX connection on the front for your phone/mp3 player
Is it the original Blaupaknt unit? if so, then i'd say - you need to get an aftermarket unit, wire that in correctly to get the functions you need
Very few actually came with AUX, i think HGT's do because of the CD changer Andy Monty can confirm this?
But its much easier to go aftermarket
I have yet again - to enjoy bluetooth handsfree as well

Oh you wanna get behind it
Unfortunatly i dowt any device you wire in like a MP3/ipod/Phone is actually powerful enough to actually drive the speakers
The connections behind are either power in and outs
and then 4 / 8 wires for the speakers

Ahh okay, thanks!

You can buy a very simple head unit/radio for about £20 from eBay which will allow you to plug a phone in to play music or a usb stick for MP3 music. But won't have a tape or CD player in it.
